By any chance is there a way for me to make the storms actually do damage to the player themself? I am running a realistic survival server, and I wish to find a way to enable this. The storm might pick up and throw somebody around, but they just hit the ground and no damage is done. Is there a way for me to make the storms actually do damage? Any help would be appreciated.

Increasing the amount of blocks that the tornado picks up will increase your chances of getting hit. That is what I did. Gotta find a balance between PC performance and the desired result tho.

Fall damage is planned for a near future update.
